It's yet again that time of the year. Valentine's Day. For whatever reason, a good amount of people stress over this Hallmark-created holiday either because they have a date and they want to make it special, or because their single and feel "forever alone." If you're like me, you're in the single boat just sailing away waiting for your time to come. However, I am not valentine-less this year. Why? Because what better valentine could I have than my dog?! Here are some reasons why your dog is the best valentine to have.

1. Whether you decide to wear something nice or kick back in some sweats, they will think you look HOT.

2. You don't have to go out and spend a bunch of money on them. You probably will though...

3. You won't have to share your chocolates, candy, or ice cream with them. But then again you probably will.

4. You can choose the sappiest movie to watch and they will not complain one bit.

5. They will be more than willing to retake as many photos as you'd like until you get that perfect candid Insta pic.

6. They will cuddle with you all night long.

7. The only thing that they will be expecting at the end of the night is your love.

8. They won't rush or judge you on how long you're going to take to get ready.

9. You won't catch them looking at someone else. All eyes will be on you.

10. There's no pressure, they already love you, so you don't have to be nervous.

11. You can sing to them and they will think it's really good.

12. They will make you feel like the most special person for the night...but then again don't they always?

13. I mean...just look at that face!
